THE BEST WAFFLE RECIPE

Steps:

• In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, cornstarch, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Make a well in the center of the bowl,
• Add buttermilk, egg yolks (reserve the whites, you will need them in a moment), and vanilla extract to the well. Gently whisk together wet ingredients (avoiding the dry) and drizzle butter into mixture while whisking.
• Whisk all wet ingredients together in the well to combine and scramble the egg yolks. Use a spatula to gradually incorporate the rest of the batter until all ingredients are well-combined (but don't over-mix). There will likely be some small lumps in the batter.
• In a separate (completely clean and completely dry) bowl, use an electric mixer to beat egg whites to stiff peaks.
• Fold egg whites into batter, stir gently until completely combined,
• Let the batter sit for about 5 minutes while your waffle iron preheats.
• Once waffle iron is ready, portion batter into hot iron (for my Belgian iron I need about 1 ¼ cups of batter). Cook until golden brown. How long the waffle takes will depend on your iron, for my Presto Belgian iron it takes about 4 minutes. The first waffle is usually a test to judge how much batter to use and how long to cook.
• Serve warm, topped with butter and syrup, whipped cream and berries, or powdered sugar!
